5:06 am
probably depend on the fine print in the budget or already you politick to said he would be able to support the steel and the heads of one of the major groups in the parliament the socialist group said that they were likely to support it so it's going to be rocky ride i think this budget over the next few months cameron's right talk about this being like a reduction in a credit card limits and of course you can have your credit card limit reduced and still spend carry on spending more money now that's almost certainly what's going to happen to britain over the next few years the amounts that britain is expected to pay into the main e.u. fund will increase as a result of increased payments to a new member countries so he's going to pretend that this will show how britain can still be a force in europe how we can push the rest of europe around this glosses over the fact of course that he would have got anywhere in this without the support of the angle of merkel in particular so he can even try to push that line the you know he knows what he's doing to europe and that we don't need to go so far as to step out

a police officer on the beat you may have an easier time and more money by serving coffee in the houses of parliament and you heard the recruiting coffeeshop workers is causing controversy among the public and create the seemingly disproportionate sorry what is pretty boy is the story. the house of commons is looking for someone to join their team of burma reste is to basically so hot fancy beverages to politicians now the job pays overt twenty thousand pounds per year which to put into context for our international viewers is over thirty thousand dollars per year if we compare that job to other public sector jobs we've got policeman who studies have recently been cut starting salaries they now start on nineteen thousand pounds a year similarly with soldiers who start on over seventy in just over seventeen thousand pounds per year so you've got frontline jobs that carry risks to your life
5:09 am
the people who are detecting the safety of british citizens that are being paid less than somebody who's serving coffee to politicians one of the police federation representatives took to twitter to ask where they could apply for such a nice restraint job in parliament because it's obviously a lot safer and it's paying more than some of the frontline police offices but i spoke to the former editor of the police review to find out what the morale all is like among the police officers amidst these revelations. rock bottom amongst police officers don't you because it is talks on their pay and conditions of their pensions and then they find out as you say the politicians who could like the rest of us make coffee themselves and let's not let's remember that the coffee they have will be heavily subsidized by us the tax payers a lot of people's wages being either frozen or slashed just like the police officers we hit the streets of london into earlier to find out whether people in

for skepticism and mistrust has prevalent in bahrain talks between the opposition and the government set to resume on sunday and that breaking the political deadlock activists blame the authorities for gagging the voices of protest while officials insist they've made more than enough concessions on reports now on freedom of speech on the back of its boring. if you look through any pro-government newspaper in bahrain you did an impression that the government has nothing to hide the news of an uprising of the opposition is dominating the front page and if you look through it you'll see other stories about the political discourse in the country the country's information minister insists bahrain has no problems with people speaking out what it is that if in freedom of expression of our english very high because it is guaranteed by the constitution moreover there is a law to be issued soon that further guarantees it we have

a problem related to banning so much zines but that's to protect bahrain from six hearing ethnic problems and violence only and not for any other reason. but this is what happened when we tried several opposition websites having looked through these pages later we did not notice any extremist overtones and so you do see from bahrain center for human rights believes the government is deliberately attempting to silence views different to its own center for human rights which i work for website is a blog we have almost more than four hundred website out of the most of them are human rights. political website although of certain beheaded our block we have only facebook and twitter there are many which is not a blog. sayed spoke to us on the back over two week prison term for what was called breaking the law on public gatherings several weeks later he was arrested again the

editor in chief of bahrain's only independent newspaper says this is how things are in his country if you speak out if you express yourself you are expressing yourself at all at your own risks people are brave enough now to speak out but they do that and they could be punished one day you could be put in jail it could end up like an a builder job three years because if you tweeted something social networking came of age during the uprisings of recent years a fact not lost on bahrain's leaders who have watched almost daily street protests and an unusual drop in web traffic through the country picked up by an american internet mourning tour leaves human rights activists here wondering exactly who the constitutional right to expression really applies to alexi russia of ski r.t. reporting from the kingdom of bahrain. the end of an era as politics threatens to. space i call into obscurity disagreements between russia and kazakhstan might see

los angeles police department has noticed it's not just after a manhunt tuft of former officer turned against them search for christopher dorner suspected of killing three people and spread to three u.s. states in northern mexico thousands of police officers are involved in the operation. or is believed to be well trained in heavily armed well facebook he posted a manifesto declaring war on the l.a.p.d.
5:16 am
with some forty people on his hitlist also accusing the department of internal corruption racism and concealment of excessive force michel roux put their skin to journalist and a former l.a.p.d. officer himself says there are many skeletons in the way he's closet. i don't condone what's happened and i want to violence and killing to end but more important i want him to be brought into law which is something i do not think that l.a.p.d. law enforcement or the u.s. government wants under any circumstances with regard to his specific allegations about his case and i'm currently reviewing legal documents that are becoming available online i have to tell you that with regard to his allegations about a rich trial board hearings and. very egregious unprofessional coverup excessive force but also management mout malfeasance perjury and a lot of other serious things i believe in one hundred percent the l.a.p.d. has been shown has
5:17 am
a consistent cultural problem with racism coverup and cronyism within the department that has victimized i think and probably driven out a great many good officers i lead for similar reasons. it appears a medal is too much to ask for according to the u.k. which is refusing its veterans russian honest basco wants to reward british choose for bravery and well tortie specifically say those who guarded critical convoys that supply the u.s.s.r. as a teaser nicholas cripple its that's not something you k. government is willing to allow. imagine doing a service to a foreign country during a time of war risking your life going through unimaginable hardships all in the name of helping an ally imagine that country wanting to reward you with a medal of honor and then imagine your own government refused to allow you to accept that medal for rather ambiguous reasons that's precisely what's happening to several hundred veterans in the u.k.
5:18 am
the russian government wanted to award them the medal for their service in the arctic convoy during world war two but the foreign and commonwealth office has refused the request saying that they appreciate the move from moscow but they simply cannot be granted because current rules dictates foreign medals can only be accepted within five years of the events occurring but the british government is promising to soon create a medal to honor u.k. troops who participated in the arctic convoys now the convoys delivered thousands of anti tank guns and fighter planes to the u.s.s.r. between one hundred forty one in one thousand nine hundred five the road to went from north america osland and the u.k. it's may look simple enough on the map but it was anything but that the convoys were constantly attacked by german u. boats ships and planes and when in humans of one of the problems the convoys often filled victim to the horrendous storms in the icy cold waters of the arctic that
5:19 am
was some seventy years ago as many of the veterans feel they may not live to see the day the u.k. very wards them with its old version of the nettled and for some there's a feeling of bitterness feeling they're being refused a medal of what they truly deserve or tycho wife not just from a bold mothership might polish them. to may. also we were what we could do we're made to do we want to do job. think that. i know another. guy on the group geo you know mothership might know all the worship of metal has been created to reward those fighting at sea for bravery it's one of the highest military decoration in russia its importance as such but it has been retained from the soviet union era because of the madly two defeats it was awarded for so there are shoes a will to let a foreign government honor their service in the greatest war of modern history
5:20 am
makes veterans wonder what's behind the reason if it had been the goal for this medal. which are not served on the american i mean when i was in shanghai and in china so a. letter. i may decide they were to offer me a bet on what would be to their written the government's response to the. for their part so many british veterans such as john seem open and receptive to the idea of a medal coming from russia while the honored yes just two of them are possession and so have a few years ago left there for a few years. and it down to meet killed me grant you a minute surprise possession to may just not only beddoes but they're coming from russia had been there this will be extra special but unfortunately in their decision making process it appears the u.k.
5:21 am
government did not consider the feelings of its country's veterans. as members of a radical feminist group gets so many naked in berlin just how far should women go to fight for a cause. would you do it without maybe you are not but do you think friends girlfriend do it more often than american girls i think so. well this week laurie harshness asked whether women should get naked to attract wanted attention from. a massive police raid in russia's second largest city of st petersburg has uncovered in the alleged extremist group of almost three hundred people members have been arrested after being suspected of calling for terrorist acts of inciting hatred going to russia as a special forces in this leaders have been arriving to send his brigade recent years to give lectures and spread extremist literature one of these lectures is among the detainees the social network page was found to contain videos of
5:22 am
terrorist acts and addresses of extremist leaders from the north caucuses the middle east. well we have a more stories few on our website including caught on camera oscar's notorious self-styled black devil is stopped by police after two years of reckless driving around the city streets he's finally brought to justice after bragging online. the ku klux klan is trying to make a comeback in america's south but the group's leaders have turned their backs or thought he's in memphis. it could be the end of an era for a legendary cosmodrome that saw the first man blasting off into space because differences between russia and kazakhstan led to rumors. stop renting baikonur to moscow artists on bart has a story. they call him the first the shooter anatoly has worked at the baikonur cosmodrome in kazakhstan for fifty years he's the man who say blast off
5:23 am
but now he's worried about political meddling in the spaceports future. we are living a normal life here so i believe they shouldn't try to fix something that's not broken since the end of the soviet union russia has rented baikonur from kazakstan but recently the head of the kazakh space agency annoyed by a lack of progress on a joint rocket project called for a halt to some of the launches allow them. indeed the number of heavy proton rockets allowed to launch in two thousand and thirteen has dropped from seventeen to twelve it's prompted behind the scenes wrangling with moscow demanding reimbursement expensive launch contracts are lost when those demands were leaked though both sides rushed to state there was no problem you go there is no scandal no sensation there's no divorce between cuz it stan and russia on the subject of
5:24 am
the baikonur cosmodrome however as russia's foreign minister pointed out there is a question mark over baikonur. that we need to address the issues as long as they arise that also refers to the questions arising about the number of launches this was the place from where yuri gagarin became the first man in space and for now both russia and kazakhstan both have an interest in continued launches from baikonur but with russia building a new cosmodrome in the far east that situation won't last for ever. rising out of the center of the vast kazak step baikonur has always been a strange place whether our gate to the stars remains here or not it will always be from here that humankind first reached the cosmos tom bottom. of the radical fell in. the group says again this time they've gone topless at the burning film festival to protest against female circumcision demonstrators jump
5:25 am
table bangers are security guards trying to quote a lot of attention along the way so if you've got it should you flaunt it for cools the rest of us lower home for this to the streets of new york to find out what you think. in new york city it's legal for ladies to protest topless so where are the bodies this week let's talk about that that part of the body even though it's legal it's still private. but do you think that would draw a lot of attention to the cause yeah but then again you know the tracks are all grown sometimes too but it attracts you there. would you ever consider protesting topless. a reason yeah what would be the reason.
5:26 am
you would go topless for that yeah would you do it well maybe you are not good but do you think french girls would do it more often than american girls i think so why is that what's wrong with the kind of crazy it would be a way to get he was attention but i personally wouldn't do it maybe someone knows and i mean do you think that it would be little it was or help because. i don't know if he'll do it much it's will bring more awareness i guess people will look so isn't that what protesting is all about. let him out lady the bottom line is going topless is a sure fire way to bring attention to your cause so ladies you might want to consider that the next time you suit up for your big rally.
5:27 am
a coming up off the break we'll take an in-depth look at the impact of h i.v. endemic in the african-american community the u.s. . saudi arabia has ordered its retailers to construct one point six meter tall barriers in the middle of their stores a rather unusual demand is that something related to everyone's favorite buzzword terrorism no it is to keep male and female coworkers separate saudi arabia is pretty infamous in the west for its laws regarding the sexes and their segregation activists always want to go to other countries to convince them to adopt western attitudes that deep down in their hearts they secretly want but often they miss
5:28 am
things like the fact that it was saudi women who ask for the segregation feeling uncomfortable while buying products from men according to a.f.p. you know some people in countries like saudi arabia or north korea might actually like living a radically different lifestyle and even if they don't like living that way well it is their job to fix it not by some sort of western intervention when i want to live in either of those countries not really do i want to live in a country with the saudi arabian concept of gender not really but part of having freedom of choice means being able to choose things that i may think are backwards or illogical you know let them have the walls in the stores if they want western civilization you know if it's truly the end all of human evolution then they'll take those walls down eventually on their own but that's just my opinion.
5:29 am
